“They flipped every stone, looked at a bunch of quarterbacks, and told me ultimately that I was going to be their guy,” Collier told Michael Carvell of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. “That’s when they gave me the offer and asked if I wanted to be a Buckeye. I said yes because I knew that’s where I wanted to be.”

Although his 3-star rating isn't as high as some of Ohio State's other targets, few quarterbacks have been more impressive during summer camps. Collier picked up a prestigious invite to the Elite 11 finals after shining during the Atlanta regional camp, and he peaked the interest of the Ohio State coaching staff when he camped in Columbus on June 9.

The 6'4", 210-pound quarterback with a strong arm, Collier is a dual-threat prospect who passed for 1,887 yards and 23 touchdowns and rushed for 485 yards and 11 touchdowns during his junior season (per the AJC article).
